Inkscape doesn't support multiple pages PDF but does support page edition. pdfshuffler is nice tu manage multiple pages PDF but doesn't support page edition. Currently to edit a page in a pdf document once have to:

  • Open the PDF in inkscape and select the page to edit
  • Edit the page and save it as a standalone PDF file
  • Open the original PDF file with pdfshuffler
  • Add the standalone PDF file
  • Move it at the good position in the document
  • Remove the former version of the page

It would be nice if this process could be replace by the following one:

  • Open the document in pdfshuffler
  • Right click on a page to edit
  • Run inkscape on that page (for example though a temporary file)
  • Modify the page in inkscape
  • Save the page in inkscape
  • Let pdfshuffler that the temporary file have changed and update the page.
